Food Therapy



I am a food lover and I strongly believe in Food Therapy. Physically as well as psychologically, our body and mind functions better when the stomach Is full. The first thing which comes to my mind, when I am stressed or depressed is food. I always carry chocolates with me just in case I or someone may need it. It is also scientifically proved food can work wonders. Even if it is not proved, I would anyway stuck to my theory. Being in a stressful marketing Job, Food is known to create wonders, gap bridges, heal wounds, clear minds and it also does a lot of other things. However, Even though I am a food addict, I have a really sensitive digestive system. I have never managed to understand or decipher what affects my system. Is it some hidden spice in the food or Is it gluttony or Is it some unknown reason. I have no clue. Still it does not stop me from gorging on food. One of my favorite foods is Fast food. Be it fiery food hot chicken and choco peanut bolt from KFC or Mcegg and Icecream coke in Mcdonald’s. Fast food works well for food therapy. Still every time I bite into a burger or chicken, My inner voice questions me about the freshness of the food and the oil. I always pray to save me from a stomach bug till the next morning. Not that they are not safe or hygiene , still the fear would not go away. My friend recommended McCain Snacks. I was little skeptical at first. Packed foods meant preservatives and food coloring. But the review I got from my friends said otherwise.
My friend was going through serious emotional stress and I tried pacifying her through various means. I then decided to the age old therapy of Food. I bought Mccain Veggie Burgers, A crispy coated vegetable patties made of a fine blend of fresh vegetables, mashed potatoes, spices and dipped in crispy bread crumbs and McCain Smiles, Mashed potatoes with happy faces. I wished they would bring back the smile in her face. I wanted to surprise her with a meal. I am not a great cook. Yet I took great efforts to prepare the meal for her. After munching through the meal, McCain proved really it’s worth. After some calories and lot of talk.  McCain brought back the smile in her face. Sometimes few calories in your body is better than a few pounds in your heart.

Rock to Sculpture

Every person we meet creates an impact on us. The way the impact works is quite surprising. Sometimes the impact created by a stranger is more than the impact by a close friend. I always consider life as a block of coal or a big piece of rock. The journey from Coal to diamond or Rock to sculpture takes a lot of time and can also be painful. It does not happen with a single person or with a single incidence. The conversation process is continuous and can happen till our last breath. We get better and better with age and experience. I have never managed to understand when a person reaches his best. Maybe the level is unattainable. Still changes, both ups and downs happen throughout our lives. I remember an innocent hyper girl who wore sensitivity on her sleeve. The smallest spark was enough to set her on fire. She was on the extreme of emotions. The emotions can range from Happiness, sorrow, loneliness and anger. Still the emotions controlled her and stole her sleep many nights. ...

Hey Ocean, Here I come

If you could plan your death, how would you plan it? #PlanUrDeath  This is a very interesting thought. The thought itself is enough to chill our bones. Death is something which is beyond our control. It is the unconquered kingdom. It is something which we cannot predict nor decide. It happens in its own phase, in its own time and in its own style. Still given as a chance. It would be the most exciting and interesting event to plan.  My death will be combination of the things I love. I would try to make it as interesting as possible.  Goodbyes are very important to me. It gives a proper ending to our life. The problem with death is we never have time for good bye. The person suddenly disappears leaving a vacuum behind. This leaves the loved ones feeling lost. I will write a proper goodbye to all the important friends and enemies. Sometimes the people who make us cry are the people who has created a great impact on them. I would try to forgive the people who have hurt...

Am I Special?

Our world revolves around us most of the time. That does not mean we do not care about the people around us. Our care and affection come back to our likes and dislikes. There is not a lot of difference between a selfish and a sensitive person. Both of them act on their ideologies and thoughts, and their actions ultimately make them happy. But we do categorise them based on their impact on the surrounding. Is it right to define a person by their actions? Is asking for exhibit personal whims and fancies a colossal mistake? What defines right and wrong? Unfortunately, the line between right and wrong is too blurry and wavy. The meaning differs with context and continent. Some days, I feel insensitive and self-centred, and the only emotion that I could feel is pain and disappointment. The anger destroys me, and I fight to retain my humanity. The remaining days, I feel guilty for my thoughts. As a human and as a member of the social ecosystem, I am expected to follow specific protocols and...
